The Official We Must Draft Cody Williams Thread!

Cody Williams gives me some strong Jarret Culver vibes.

Dont think I was ever a big Culver guy, but I'm still shocked by just how badly it went for him.
 
Gasol brothers? That's all i can think of tho
I always forget about them as brothers for some reason. It's probably a complete non-factor. Two brothers can both be all-stars in the way any two people can be all-stars. Just something that is always interesting to me.

Like Michael Porter is this all-star level talent and his brother got kicked out of the NBA for gambling what amounts to petty cash to what his brother is worth.
 
I need to watch more of him. I caught him only in the tournament and he looked ... clueless to be honest, like he didn't know what he was doing, didn't know where to position himself on the floor or what to do with the ball when he got it. Looked like the opposite of Castle. I have read people describe him as a playmaker and I didn't even see a hint of it so I would assume I just caught a really weird bad game of his...

He's a really good driver and he's long as hell. Those are his selling points. Doesnt have an in-between game at all and is a hesitant shooter on open shots.
 
If you're a believer in pedigree wouldn't you not want Williams? There's never been two all star brothers iirc.
Pau and Marc Gasol are both going to be in the Hall of Fame. Also, both Tom and Dick Van Arnsdale (who were actually twins) were 3 time All-stars.

Cody Williams the consistent playmaker having a 10% assist rate w/ a 17.2% TOV rate is still the funniest ****. On a team with a good amount of offensive talent.

So Cody has a:
+10% FG%
+7% 2P%
+8% 3FG% (https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/players/jarrett-culver-1.html)
+7% FT%

You can't really argue that Cody and Jarrett are comparable shooters. You might be able to argue that Culver had very high usage that may have affected his percentages.

Also, I don't see how you can just ignore Culver's soph stats, which were a drop-off from his freshman year. LOL. Culver shot 30% from 3P as a soph.

Just comparing across the board as freshman. Culver had slightly lower percentages, but he did more with the ball and took more risk. He wasnt as shy to shoot. Cody just hunts efficiency off easy shots he got in Colorado's offense around good players like Simpson and De Silva.

If Cody stayed and his role increased around a worse team, he would probably exerpience the same efficiency drop that Culver did.

Still, address calling him a consistent playmaker when he is 6th in assist on his team and averages more turnovers than assist.
